Dual purpose chickens?

There was in the mid 20 century a wonderful breed called Lamona that was a very good layer BUT was wonderful to eat after the laying period, unfortunately they are almost extinct. If you can find it you will have exactly the breed you need!

I'm hoping to get there one day!! Part of my problem is I dont know how to process them. When hubs kills wild birds he just cuts out the breasts so neither of us know how to pluck them. Do you do it by hand? Someone also mentioned scalding. I dont even know what that is!:idunno I wish ther were local chicken butchering and processing lessons!
I’m just reading through these but an awesome video was done and popped on the main page. I’m terrified of doing it myself but even I could do it if I set my mind to it with that one. If you done see it say hey and I’ll track it down.
